I looked at some stats yesterday and was surprised to learn Cursor AI now writes 97% of my code at work. Mostly through cloud agents (watching it work is too distracting for me)

My approach is very simple: Just Talk To It

People way overthink this stuff. It works pretty good. Sharing .md files and hyperfocusing on various orchestrations and prompt hacks of the week feels as interesting as going deep on vim shortcuts and IDE skins.

Just ask for what you want, be clear, give good feedback. That’s it

How do you collect these stats?

Is it by characters human typed vs AI generated, or by commit or something?

Are you mostly using the Composer model?

I love the IDE skins analogy. Very true.
